LINCOLN STATUE.
dwelling of the Statue at Lincoln
Park Chicago.
Flag aud Exposes the Great Work
OF Art to the Public View.

Since the night of the great fire Lincoln
Park has never contained within the same
area so many human beings as thronged
its plains, clustered under its trees, and
in every variety of vehicle crowded its
roadways Saturday afternoon. A grand
stand had been hastily thrown up to the
east of Dearborn avenue entrance.
Seats we're also arranged around the
terrace leading to the pedestal upon
which stood the yelled figure of Abraham
Lincoln by Augustus Saint Gaudens in
accordance with the will and bequest of
Eli Bates. A military band played a
spirited prelude of airs appropriate to
the occasion, among them my Old Ken
lucky Home"
The statue itself, rising twelve feet
above the terrace, was visible from Clark
street to the lake.
At 8 O'Clock Mayor Roche assumed the
chair. Mr.. Thomas F. Withrow gave
brief sketch of Eli Bates.
Mr.. William c. Cloudy on behalf of the
Lincoln Park Commissioners accepted the
giftof the statue from Mr.. Withrow, who
had presented it in the name of the Bates
bequest trustees. A handsome lad had
meanwhile modestly taken his place at
the halyards, and amid the roar of can
non, the trump liant strains of National
airs, the cheers of thousands, and the
tears of many the colossal bronze was I'M
yelled by young Abraham Lincoln, while
the gray heavens became aglow with mil

The lAutumn of Life.

The Autumn of life Genes to us at last.
The dawn and the flush of our day is
now past.
And the morn of our youth has been
slipping away,
TIL we're nearing the close of life
long day.
1t hath given US sorrow and toll and
care,
Moments of agony, seasons of prayer,
Pierced US with thVrns that broidered its
lane,
Brought to us sickness and trials and
pain.
Shrouds for our burying it wove IN Its
Showed US the breadth and depth OF the
tomb,
Nipped the first bud ere it oloomed on
our tree,
Plucked some fair tendrils that clung to
our knee.
Rough is the path that our feet Travelled
DER,
Sometimes the wolf hath crept close to
our door;
Sometimes thick darkness seemed shut
ting US in.
Sometimes the crown seemed too far off
to win.
Sometimes the storm has come down on
US so,
We know not which way from its fury
to go,
Sometimes the sky overhead was so clear,
That we were delighted with beams and
good cheer.
But we have trudged on with heart
full of love.
And peace has come to US, that heaven
ly dove,
And we to our vows have been faithful
and true,
And God has watched over and guided
US too.
Not all of the road has been rough to
our feet,
Not all of earth's sunshine has scorched
Us with heat,
Not always the thistle and thorn held
their own,
Bat sometimes sweet roses our pathway
hath strewn.

were so fair.
So rich in their fragrance they tighten
ed our care,
And many faded, dead wreath of the
past,
Still holdeth sweetness that always
will last.
The tomb may be dark but the flowers
are bright,
Where many who loved US are sleeping
tonight;
The sunderings of ties and the partings
were sad,
But the moment of meeting is sure to
be glad.
Then let us thank God for the sorrow
ana s5rITe,
As well as the joy that has come to our
life;
Some glorious sunbeams the sky has let
fall,
Thank Him for the sunlight. the shad-
ow aud all.
We've glorious promise of light in the
eve,
Till then with the sweet we must bitter
receive;
1t will not be long since November is
here, q
And the book of this life closes up wfth-
its year. Mrs. NJ. J. Smith.

A BLIND MAN MADE HAPPY.

Mr.. n. G. Du Bots, a prominent citiZsn
of Chandler, Ind, who has been under the
treatment of DIR. Barker, the oculist and
sRrist, for the last few days, was just start
ing for home when met by the writer, and
the following conversation occurred, which
we give as an index OF the esteem in which
DR.. Barker is held by his patients.
How long have your eyes been bothering
you, Mr.. Du. Bots?
It's about fifteen years since I first
noticed they were failing; however it is
only eight or ten months since the sight
became obscure.
Had you made no effort to have them.
cured before coming to see DR.. Barker
Oh yes. had tried a good many eye
doctors who made great promises, but done
nae no good.
Then they all made fair promises, did
tbey1
Yes indeed. They all said they could
cure me, but they never did it.
What was the matter of your eyes?
That's q question that bothered the
doctors as we'll as myself. Some said one
thing and some another, until l came to
DR.. Barker, who said l had cataracts that
he removed by an operation, which was
neither painful nor pr otracted, and now l
am all right.
How did you happen to finally come to
see DR.. Barker?
Well, you see, 1 live only twelve miles
from Evansville. DIR. Barker visited there
q good many times, and l knew of great
many cures he had performed. l made up
my mind that il he could cure those
desperate cases, he could cure me. So
wrote him and he answered / should come
TO Indianapolis.
Then you had confidence in his skill
from what you knew of him before coming
here
Yes sir. L would.rather trust him than
any man in the United States. l would
have gone almost any place to see him.
How long have you been here2
Just one week.
You're well satisfied with your trip then
are you?
More than satisfied. He has done me a
splendid Job, besides.he charged me much
less than / expected to nay. I'll tell you,
sir, he is great man in his profession.
If you have any friends needing his SER
vices don't hesitate to insist that they
visit him while they have an opportunity.
Well, must go. Good day sir, and the
writer wished him q safe Journey home.

The Toronto Globe, speaking for a large
constituency, demands the recall of Mr..
Chamberlain, and prophesies war between
England and the United States If Cham
berlain is permitted TO remain. The
Globe says "there is no ought, or SHOULD in
the case" and adds: Should the Com
missioners fail to reach a settlement, or
should the Senate burke an agreement,
nothing can be more certain than that war
between Great Britain and the United
States can be avoided only by Great Brit
ain abandoning Canada in way that will
forever disgrace the British name" Seeing
that England has to import fully two
thirds of the food she consumes, war
with the United States would in a short
time reduce rations in England to such an
extent that good many beef-eating
Englishnen would go to bed hungry.

A DissOlute Louisville Mechanic Kills His
Wife, Child and Rrother-in-Law.
LOUISVILLE, KY, November IA. ter
rible tragedy was enacted in the western
portion of this city last night, the awfGl
results of which were not discovered until
10 o'clock this morning. At that hour
Mrs. Mary Bruner. the mother of Mrs.
Charles B. Brownfield, who lives at No.
1922 West Chestnut street, called at the
residence of her daughter upon some mat,
te-s connected with family affairs. No,
one answered her ring at the door bell,
and after several Intellectual efforts, she
went to the window of the little one-story
frame cottage, raised it and threw open the
shutters. The sight that met her eyes was
horrible beyond description. In the mid
die of the door opening between the room
occupied by her daughter and husband
and their little daughter of eight or ten
years, and occupied by William f. Bruner,
a brother of Mrs. Charles B. Brown6eld,
who resided with the family, was the body,
of Charles Brownfield, her daughters hus-
band, suspended by strap attached to
the Intel, and swaying to aud fro slightly,
the features chastity in death.
She aroused the neighbors, who made
the following horrible discoveries. At
the suicides back, and on a bed in dark
corner reposed the body of William T.
facing the self.murderer. In the other
room was another bed upon which, stiffen-
ed in their blood, were the forms of his
wife and nine-year-old child. Their heads
were almost severed from their bodies.
Beneath Brownfield's feet lay the razor
with which the awful deeds had been COM
mitted. The bed clothing was drenched
with blood, and the faces of the victims
besmeared so that they were almost be-
yond recognition. On the bureau in the
parlor the following letter dated 6:30. a.
m, and written by the murderer in an
unusually legible hand, was found:
To all whom it may concern:
